sram - Rams and DQ lines

I'm studying DRams and SRams at university and on the slides the lines where a data is read or written is called DQ. But whats does it means? Maybe D is for Data, but Q?

Answer

I think that the origin of the name comes from the convention for flip flops. On a D flipflop the data in pin is generally called D, and the data out pin, Q. Since the memories data bus is bidirectional, a data pin can be D when it is input or Q when it is output hence the name DQ.
